Persistence is what it’s all about

This is an amazing wee poem by Calvin Coolidge!

Persistence is what it’ all about!

Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence.
Talent will not; Nothing is more common than unsuccessful me with talent.
Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.
Education will not; for the world is full of educated derelicts.
Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.
The slogan “Press On” has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.
